Many people's lives are crippled, or at least hampered, by what other people have done to them, or what they have done to other people. Only by finding a way to be free of the past, can we live fully. The Christian belief is that we do this by forgiveness, and by the death of Jesus on the cross. This volume discusses the how and why of forgiveness, seeking to help the reader understand the meaning of the death of Jesus and how it helps us to forget and live. The book is presented in six chapters with questions to help groups in Lent.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Drawing on recent discussions of quotations in the fields of rhetorics, linguistics, and literary studies, Stanley argues that Paul's explicit appeals to Jewish Scriptures must be analyzed as rhetorical devices that seek to influence the thoughts, feelings, and actions of a first-century audience, an approach that requires a different set of questions and methods than scholars have typically used in their studies of Paul's quotations. Key questions include why Paul quoted words of Scripture to support some of his arguments and not others; how quotations help to advance the developing arguments of Paul's letters; and how a mostly illiterate first-century audience from a variety of backgrounds might have viewed these sudden intrusions of material from a Jewish religious text. Answering these questions requires paying careful attention to the affective and poetic dimensions as well as the intellectual aspects of the original audience's encounter with the Holy Scriptures of Israel.
